I Need Help

Oh help, again
Again I am overwhelmed with my day
Again I find that I have said yes too often
And spent my time on silly things
Again I am panicked at being found to be a fool
Again I find myself inadequate

Help

Of course,
I’d like to tell you just what kind of help to give
How to rescue me
And have me look triumphant
Not beleaguered
To have me stay on top
And you just move the pile
To play into the hands
Of this urgent, crushing game

To play the fool,
But play it well,
So other fools applaud.
What do you think?
Could you arrange that?
